If you want goodtimes  

  G  
I know where to look  

    d                       a  
and if you want goodtimes I will  

a  
thrown on the bed  

          G  
with your junkyard religion  

       d                     a  
at the best of the western motels  



thrown with the pawns  
and the hardscrabble rooks  
thrown with our ransom of kings  
but if you want good times  
I know where to look  
and I know it's good times you want  



a         d              a  
long time here long time here  

     G               d  
I'll keep you around holding this ground  

     G          F         a  
I'll keep you a long time here  



in 24 hours  
we could be in Vegas  
where the heat is a possible friend  
where snakeeyes and boxcars  
will wet down your whistle  
and steal all the noise from your head  



but your hell is hotter  
than the typical thirst  
and in Vegas the ice is not cheap  
and heaven's a backroom  
where the gamblin' don't finish  
and you keep makin' the same mistakes  



a         d              a  
long time here long time here  

     G               d  
I'll keep you around holding this ground  

     G          F        
I'll keep you a long
